Brentwood Events

Bronwen Hruska at Diesel Bookstore Diesel, A Bookstore in Brentwood welcomes author Bronwen Hruska to the store to discuss and sign her new book, Accelerated, on Tuesday, October 9th at 7pm.

In this striking debut novel, a father and his son discover what lies beneath the gilded facade of a tony Upper East Side private school: an epidemic of over-medicated children. A single dad and struggling artist, Sean sticks out like a sore thumb among the power-soccer-mom cliques and ladies-who-lunch that congregate on the steps every afternoon. But at least Toby is thriving and getting the best education money can buy - or is he?  

Bronwen Hruska, the publisher of Soho Press, has worked as a journalist and screenwriter for twenty years. Her articles have appeared in The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, More, Entertainment Weekly, Cosmopolitan, The Village Voice, and The San Francisco Chronicle. She has sold an original screenplay to Columbia Pictures and original television pilots to NBC, CBS, Lifetime, and Sony television. She lives in Manhattan with her two sons.
